get_domain

Get all routes, models, functions, and context for a specific domain (e.g. AUTH, PAYMENTS, DATABASE, CORE).

How to control get_domain ↓

AI agents call get_domain to retrieve information from Carto MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

This tool queries and retrieves static information about codebase structure, routes, and domain context. It has no side effects, cannot modify data, execute code, delete resources, or commit financial transactions.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get all routes, models, functions, and context for a specific domain' — purely retrieval operations with no modification, deletion, or execution capabilities. The name 'get_domain' and verb 'Get' confirm read-only semantics.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_domain gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Carto MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_domain:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_domain": {}
  }
}

get_domain is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Carto MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

What does the get_domain tool do? +

Get all routes, models, functions, and context for a specific domain (e.g. AUTH, PAYMENTS, DATABASE, CORE). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Carto MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on get_domain? +

Register the Carto MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_domain: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Carto MCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is get_domain? +

get_domain is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit get_domain? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_domain rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block get_domain completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_domain. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides get_domain? +

get_domain is provided by the Carto MCP Server MCP server (theanshsonkar/carto). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Carto MCP Server tool call.
